Me trying the live audio transcription facility in MacOS Sequoia. Well it could be quite useful, but with serious caveats! #MacOS #Sequoia #transcription #accessibility #Hawick #Roxburghshire #ScottishBorders #Scotland #accents #ScottishAccent #ScottishAccents #NotesApp #Mac

Found Melrose kirk session minutes at ScotlandsPeople include lists of schoolmasters 1768-1854 parish by parish in Presbytery of Chirnside. Whole bunch of Berwickshire places! Melrose isn't even in Berwickshire 😜 Likely paper records muddling in Scottish Record Office / National Records of Scotland. #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #School #Schools #History #ScottishHistory #NationalRecordsOfScotland #ScotlandsPeople #Archive #Archives #HistoricalResearch #Berwickshire #Melrose #Roxburghshire #Scotland

Just browsing the mid 18th century #Melrose parish #kirkSession minutes online (#Roxburghshire, #Scotland). And when I got to a sentence in 1747 of #excommunication for #incest I have to say I expected a closer relationship than "She being his Grand Uncle's Wife"! #ScottishBorders #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #Morality #Immorality #18thCentury #EighteenthCentury #ChurchOfScotland

An old blog post, but a good one, here’s what I wrote about one of my favourite characters from Melrose in the past, the 17th century regality court clerk Thomas Wilkieson. He was involved with this local court at a turbulent time in its history. http://www.one-place-studies.org/w-is-for-2017/
